The anomalous Hall effect in epitaxial face-centered-cubic cobalt films.

The anomalous Hall effect in epitaxial face-centered-cubic Co film grown by molecular beam epitaxy on MgO(001) is investigated. The intrinsic anomalous Hall conductivity is separated from the scattering-related extrinsic contributions and determined to be 727 Ω(-1) cm(-1) and temperature independent. This result provides well defined experimental data for further theoretical justification.
